That is really great! I am doing the same thing too. I am reading Bhagvad Gita which stresses on a similar idea and reading Deep Work by Cal Newport! Any books you wanna suggest!?

I've been reading the "primary" sources for stoicism, so Marcus Aurelius, Seneca, etc. the book the other commenter recommended is a good start and overview though.
A Guide to the Good Life: The Ancient Art of Stoic Joy

That one is pretty good.

I also like Jiddu Krishnamurthi a lot but ppl here seem to be not big fans of him for some reason.

I have read Jiddu Krishnamurthi's work and I find it really interesting , rather helpful. I didnt know that ppl dislike his idea!?
For stoicism, The Obstacle is the Way by Ryan Holiday.
